Fluxbrane and S-brane solutions related to Lie algebras

We overview composite fluxbrane and special S-brane solutions for a wide class of intersection rules related to semi-simple Lie algebras. These solutions are defined on a product manifold R* × M 1 × ... M 1 × ... ×M n which contains n Ricci-flat spaces M 1, ..., M n with 1-dimensional R* and M 1. They are governed by a set of moduli functions H s, which have polynomial structure. The powers of polynomials coincide with the components of the dual Weyl vector in the basis of simple coroots. © 2012 Pleiades Publishing, Ltd.
